My husband and I wrote lots of letters while we were seperated for 5 years. After he arrived, we obviously stopped with the late night phone calls and love letters. For our first anniversary, I wrote him a love letter about all the wonderful things that had happened in the past year and how thankful I am to have him by my side every day now. Then we did it :thumbs: Happy Anniversary :lol:

UGH! Men are hard to shop for. My husband and I are coming upon our 2-year anniversary on Oct. 1st. Last year, we were apart on our anniversary AND I was at my old job, in a deli, slicing meat and cheese all day ... :( ... and we just talked, etc. This year I want to actually CELEBRATE the anniversary and I want to get him something nice (I think he's getting me a bracelet ;)) Anyway, the thing is that he doesn't really NEED anything and he's not really a man-jewelry type of guy; he wears his wedding ring and the watch I got him last Christmas, but I really don't think he would wear anything else. I know he wants an Mp3 player, BUT I want to get him a nice one with lots of memory and I think that would make a much better Christmas gift than anniversary gift (plus, if I get him that now I will have nothing to get him for Christmas). Also, we have most other electronic stuff and something like a portable DVD player would be totally useless to him and he just got a new cell phone upon his arrival to the US. AND he's working construction, so I couldn't get him like nice clothes or shoes because he will never have the chance to wear them. So, I'm like -- what do males like? Action figures? Toy guns? :help:

Any gift suggestions?

for our first anniversary I made my hubby love coupons and then I also thought up all the different things I love about my hubby and printed them onto paper and cut them out and glued them to coloured paper.... I then filled a little box with those and some Hershey Kisses and Hugs.... He loved it :thumbs:

Hmm, I won't speak for all guys and make a stereotype, but gadgets are usually good. Paul skis so I bought him the swissarmy knife for skiing, ice climbing, etc - The Altimeter one. It has temp, altitude, etc...he takes it skiing and it's also handy around the house. You can even get them engraved. I bought it right here: and the customer service, delivery, etc was excellent!

http://www.swissarmy.com/multitools/Catego...andleisure&

It's an idea...

And so he did what countless punk-rock songs had told him to do so many times before: he lived his life

10/07/2006 WEDDING DAY!

11/14/2006 AOS packet made it to 'the box' after being overnighted.

12/02/2006 Paul had biometrics

12/14/2006 AOS Forwarded to CSC AND AP Application approved.

01/17/2007 First touch of 2007 at CSC

01/20/2007 Touched AGAIN (also the 18th) come on...

February: Oops, RFE for a REGISTERED marriage certificate. Oops! Overnighted it.

02/28/2007 Paul gets email letting us know his GREENCARD is on it's way! It's done...for now!

03/09/2007 Paul's greencard arrives. And breathe...

We began with mailing the I-129 in on February 27, 2006 so the whole process took us approx. one year.

Good luck out there!
